Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at NorthShore University HealthSystem.
Research Assistant
First a chat with the PI, then a group interview with lab members. HR will call before and after. You'll probably need to email 2-3 recommendation letters. It's pretty chill, just gotta show you can pick up new skills.
- What is your availability duration?
- What are your long-term career aspirations?
- Can you detail your prior scientific experience?
Research Assistant
First, there was a phone screening with HR where they wanted to know what I knew about the position and why I was interested in NorthShore. This part really required knowing the job and company well. Then, I had an in-person interview where I met with HR, the Lab Manager, the Primary Investigator, and the rest of the team. HR asked more about my personality. The chat with the Lab Manager and PI felt pretty relaxed, like they were just seeing if I'd fit in. Some of the other team members, a fellow RA and the Project Manager, asked me questions about my skills.
- Can you share the best decision you've ever made?
- Tell me about a situation where you disagreed with your superiors and how you handled it.
- Could you introduce yourself?
Research Assistant
The selection process was very thoughtful. It involved one phone interview and then an in-person interview that lasted an hour with the Section Supervisor and Director. During the in-person, they gave a tour of the offices and I spoke with other staff members. I learned about the study procedures and the population. I also had the chance to ask questions and learn more about the position. The staff were extremely qualified and knowledgeable. Two references were requested and contacted.
- Can you get to suburban communities for the study using a vehicle?
